Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Creamy Bacon-Wrapped Chicken Thighs.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C), setting the stage for a delicious meal.
Step 2
Next, lay your chicken thighs flat on a cutting board.
Step 3
If they need a little help to achieve an even thickness, gently pound them with a meat mallet—this ensures they cook evenly and stay juicy.
Step 4
Now, it’s time to spread a generous layer of cream cheese over each thigh, adding a rich and creamy flavor that will make your taste buds dance.
Step 5
Carefully roll each thigh up tightly, tucking in the sides as you go to keep all that delicious filling inside.
Step 6
To add a savory twist, wrap each chicken roll with at least one slice of crispy bacon, securing it with a skewer if needed to keep everything snug and secure.
Step 7
Arrange your bacon-wrapped chicken rolls in a deep casserole dish, creating a beautiful presentation that’s sure to impress.
Step 8
Pour the entire can of condensed cream of chicken soup over the rolls, making sure they are well coated in that creamy goodness.
Step 9
Cover the dish with aluminum foil and pop it into your preheated oven for 20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
Step 10
After the first 20 minutes, remove the foil and let the chicken bake for an additional 20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through, the juices run clear, and the bacon is perfectly crispy.
Step 11
The aroma wafting through your kitchen will be irresistible, and soon you’ll have a delightful dish ready to serve that’s sure to become a family favorite!.
